Trust and Estates
"Estate" is the legal term used to define your property and money—basically, everything that belongs to you. Estate planning attorneys will assist with different strategies you can use to transfer your belongings after you die. By planning your estate, you can maximize its value by minimizing taxes and eliminating court costs and interference. As an Estate planning attorney, we also help you control and protect your estate during your lifetime, by writing documents that allow you to transfer property and money to children, charities, or others in a way you desire.

Corporate Law
A corporation is a formal way to organize your business to gain rights and privileges, and to limit your personal liability. There may be tax and financial advantages to incorporation, but it can also increase your business licensing fees and decrease the amount of personal control you have in running your business. There are many legal consequences to incorporation, so it's a good idea to consult an attorney specializing in corporate law. As a corporate attorney, we also represent shareholders unhappy with the actions of a corporation.
